outwit, outplay, outlast...


it's the game of survival. and let's just say that i won this round :)

i'm working for a non-profit corporation that does SOOOOO much good year round, but we go into overdrive during the holidays. it's a ton of work, but it's also a ton of fun and they hired bobby (temporary, part time) to help out with all the holiday craziness. his unofficial job title was something on the order of christmas elf.

so when i saw ELF shirts on sale at target, i could not resist.


only problem was i knew he'd NOT BE CAUGHT DEAD IN ONE.


i bought it anyhow. and wrapped it up. and made my BOSS give it to him.

so he put it on. and wore it. ALL.DAY.LONG.

the BIG (well, actually she's quite tiny) boss even complimented him on it and when he told her that debbie bought it for him, she told debbie she should buy one for everyone.

and meanwhile i just sat quietly and snickered. ALL.DAY.LONG.

and now i'm laughing again...because christmas is over and so is the joke. and i won. he looked ridiculous for an entire day...and did it cheerfully...and i won. hee hee hee.
